Spoiler:
For one thing, the boy seems to know who Misuzu and Yukito are when he looked at them, indicating that he has information only attenable if he is: 1.)a viewer of the story (an audience), or 2.)a character of the story that has already lived through the entire story. Since option 1 is non-sensible, I think option 2 works best. Now continuing from that choice, it can be deducted that Yukito, as Sora the bird, is "somehow" able to find Kanna in the sky, is "somehow" able to break the spell, and is "somehow" able to get themselves reincarnated. Now borrwowing notes from beef jerky's explanination, it can be seen that because Misuzu's death may have been able to loosen/break the power of the curse on Kanna (but I don't think it did break since Misuzu still died). However, that event may have help Yukito freed Kanna when he actually finds her. Now perhaps when the curse is finally broken, Kanna can be reborn as a human with no problems (and perhaps Yukito will get to be reborn as a human as well, now that he doesn't need to be a bird any longer). Now we know the story in Air jumps from time to time, literally, so perhaps they get reborn in the past (who's to say reincarnation has to happen in the future). Also the boy's speech would suggest that both he and the girl are the result of the characters' journey through the story. He knows the characters will "suffer a cruel fate for the rest of their days", and implies that these kids are able to begin their lives due to the efforts of those characters.
As for the girl, I would say she is more likely to be Kanna and not Misuzu since she didn't seem to know Misuzu and Yukito, at least she didn't have the same reaction as the boy, and she has blue hair. However, she did seem to have some of Misuzu's memories since she is playing on the beach with a friend, a wish of Misuzu in Ep 1, and she is wearing a summer dress similar to the one wore by Misuzu in Ep 7 when Misuzu is suppose to go to the beach with Yukito. In a way the girl is completing Misuzu's wish.
Also I'd like to add something to the theory why Sora is a crow (and not an other bird); in Ep 7 Misuzu seems to be interested in a crow, so it makes some sense that Yukito came back as a crow to make sure he has Misuzu's attention, which worked as she is the one who went and talk to the crow (and not the other way around) in Ep 9.
Now does anyone know what the name of Minagi's other sister is and what job does Haruko have before Misuzu's death? And should I watch Air the movie/Air Ep 13 after I finish the serie's Ep 1-12 and summer specials?
I'll never though that will happen. What is name of this sequel?

The purpose of Haruko being there before Misuzu's death was so that she could have a second chance actually acting as a real mother for Misuzu. This opportunity only came after Yukito sacrificed himself and reincarnated as Sora. Misuzu being able to spend time with Haruko that summer made it 'complete' for her before she passed away.
